Don't Worry...There's Room!

"Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me.  In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.  If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also." -John 14:1-3

When we are expecting company or house guests, we take time to prepare.  Maybe we do a little extra cleaning, we straighten up and hide some clutter.  We often want to make our visitors comfortable, able to feel at home in our homes.

We try to make our house guests comfortable, but our homes cannot compare to what awaits us in Heaven!  While we are busy here on earth, Jesus is preparing our rooms in Heaven.  If we believe in Jesus and have committed ourselves to God, then we do not have to worry about what will happen next.  Jesus has told us that He has taken care of our heavenly homes and one day He will come back to take us there.  In the meantime, we don't have to worry, Jesus has reassured us that there will always be room for us with Him!

Don't worry, but believe and know that Jesus is preparing a place for you!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for loving me, forgiving me, and preparing a place for me.  Help me to not worry, but to remember that You are in control and always have room for me.  In Jesus I pray, amen.
